Car rental in Grevenbroich

Driving in Grevenbroich

With the steering wheel on the left and the vehicles driving on the right side of the road, it's a mirror image of the driving experience in the UK but not so alien that one cannot quickly adapt.

Speed Limits

Unlike the UK, where the top speed is 70 miles per hour, on German autobahns, there's an 'advised' limit of 130 km/h. Roads in urban areas like Grevenbroich, however, generally have a 50km/h limit.

Parking

In Grevenbroich, most street parking areas follow the 'pay and display' approach, a common practice in many UK cities as well. However, unlike in the UK, in Germany, you're not typically required to leave your parking tickets in plain view in the vehicle, but it's a good practice to do so. There are various car parks and street-side spaces available throughout the city, with clear signage describing any restrictions.

Points of Interest

A rental car grants the freedom to explore the city's attractions at your own leisure. Points that should not be missed include:

• The historical city centre with its tall minster tower, an icon of Grevenbroich
• Museum Villa Erckens, which offers an insight into the region's historical and cultural past
• Parks and natural reserves like the Bend, a large leisure area with a lake, perfect for relaxation and picnics

Car Class Recommendations

Considering the city's compact size and well-devised road infrastructure, a small to mid-size car would be the best choice for getting around comfortably, similar to what you’d choose to navigate the compact streets of the English countryside.

Conclusion

Discover Grevenbroich's unique charm, from its commitment to sustainable energy to its historic and natural attractions. Experience the allure of this city through the convenience and freedom that a rental car provides. Enjoy your journey!
